V2 popping my be112 atomizers. Are there better ones?

[robw]

I got my v2 yesterday and it included a rn4072 atomizer. I made sure the atomizer stayed flooded for its break in period but it blew after about 10 min. I went to an old be112 atomizer and it lasted about 3 hours. I then went to 2 brand new be112 atomizers and the first one blew in about 30 min this morning and the second I just put on and it is going ok but its my last one so now Im thinking I need to order some more. I just am scared that the rn4072 and be112 are not capable of handling fully charged batteries. The be112 blew right after I swapped batteries this morning, so I have a suspicion the be112 atomizer cant handle fully charge batteries.

What is the best pen style atomizer to use with the V2?

510 hands down

I recommend the Joye 302, but apparently I'm the only forum member that has posted of any success with it. So please, take my recommendation with a drop of juice. I also highly recommend the be112s, so I'm not sure where the problem is with your setup. Are you using 3V or 3.7V batteries? I haven't had a single atty, pen style or otherwise pop on a 5V device. Not saying it can't happen, I believe it can...but the V2 in particular has been very atty friendly, and my 112s and 302s rock all day long, again and again, with this thing. And I don't flood, I blow it out at first, four drips, 10-12 iron lung puffs, four drips, 10-12 iron lung puffs, repeat as necessary. I ask about the batteries because I also use two 3.7v CR123s in there, but only with an HV atty. That turbo charges the v2, but would also risk premature death to a standard atomizer.

I guess it's possible you've got a bad set of atomizers, I've definitely been there and done that, but generally speaking the 112 is a very solid and safe bet for the v2...

I had the same issue. Started a ticket with them over it. After blowing 3 consecutive RN attys within as many days, I sent a letter.

On my own, I decided before raising more fuss that I would get out my lone, remaining 801 atty and give it a go. It's been working fine for me for over a week now. Hitting like a champ and tho it was suggested that I might be doing something wrong...running it dry, drawing on it too long, etc....my 801 has none of the same erratic behavior and it doesn't BLOW.

I am convinced that the RN attys are simply inferior...at least for THIS device. Perhaps others have had better luck, but I want my 801's from now on!

 

[robw]

Well the V2 uses 2 3volt batts to that is 6volts not 5 volts. Im sure the 510s are good, but I want to use pen style as well.

Yeah I kinda blew right by the Pen Style...........sorry bout that

The Janty/Joye 302 will not work on my V2 at all. It would not work with another 801 device I have either. I did put a 801/510 adapter on the other device and then put a 510/801 adapter on that and the 302 ROCKS!!!. There is some incompatability with the pin inside the 302 and the connection inside the V2 (& other device I have) that is not allowing it to work, but the adapter fixed that.

When the 302 makes the connection it is the best atty I have ever used. And I love the BE112 as well. But the 302 is amazing.

Hey Rob- the device actually runs at around 5v- it uses a resistive material to bring the voltage down. As for the atty issue, flooding the atomizer actually makes it work harder on the device thus will cause it to die quickly. You need to find a nice middle ground between flooding and vaping it dry (which can take some trial and error). I usually go with 4-5 drops on a brand new atty, redrip after about 4-5 inhales, then back down to 3-4 drops after every 4 puffs or so. If it's flooded, try blowing it out and letting it dry out upside down over night.

We really like the 801 on the V2 here.

 

[robw]

I was actually following the directions included.

drip 4-5 drops on the atomizer,then 3-4 after every 4 puffs or so

That is probably where I went wrong.

 

[robw]

I just put the V2 on my dc volt meter and the read out said 6.5 volts. Whats up with that?

And this is 3 hours into the batteries.
I checked the tenergy batteries fresh off the charger and each one is 3.8 volts.

hey big guy, just put the gun down and we can talk about this...okay?

[robw]

Don't get me wrong, I love the performance. Perhaps this is a fluke considering the battery clearly states 3v on it, they may have incorrectly labeled it. I just wish it had not fried 3 atomizers.
Amazingly the 510 atomizer I used is still going strong, apparently 510 attys are beefier in construction.

 

[TommyGunBC]

if you test the prodigy for voltage without a atomizer attached it will not read it properly as with a atomizer connected it will be less as it is under load .

 

[robw]

I understand that there is a difference between under load and open, the question I posed was why does the tenergy battery have a reading of 3.8 volt and a label of 3 volt.

If you meter a alkaline battery that is rated at 1.5 volt it will meter at 1.5 volt.

So why are these batteries from tenergy reading nearly 25% higher than their label?

 

[Casey@PS]

Fully charged, they're usually between 3.5-3.7- this drops off after an hour or two (depending on usage).

That will decrease over time- they'll stop charging that high.

Also, just to echo the sentiments of TommyGun, testing unloaded= not the accurate voltage that you're vaping at.

 

[robw]

So back to my original question, is there a pen style atty that can handle the fully charged power with out popping?

 

[fjames]

I can toss several new atomizers before finding a good one (pen style.) I use the be112 but have used several different ones over the last year or so. QC just isn't that good on them - when you find a good one it will last for quite some time depending on your usage and care habits ... for me maybe 6 weeks. But then what my lady friend and I call the "3-day atty horror" begins anew. I've gotten my "is it a good one or not" period down from a day or two to an hour or two lol.

It takes awhile to psychologically assimilate the idea of just tossing a new thing, but it's the easiest approach for me. Funny, I now know what a good be112 will taste like when new and look forward to what is actually a bad taste because I know it will go away soon. The other bad tastes never do. I've only very rarely had one just fail completely though - maybe because I toss them before they get the chance? I dunno ...

robw, I have been useing the BE112's and 510's on my V2 with no issues. the current BE112 I have on my V2 is the first one I got out of an order of 5 of them, and it's been in service for about 3 weeks now. I always drip 4 drops into it, and vape until I detect a slight change in flavor then drip 4 more drops.

R.F.

 

[robw]

thanks, Ill order some more be112's to be on the safe side. I know that atleast they last longer than the RN did.
Right now im on a 510 and it reminds me of when I got my first janty 510 and how great it was before the batteries all started to seem weak.
